In this episode 272, guest host Cathy Pickens, interviews regular host Landis Wade about his mystery novel, “Deadly Declarations,” forthcoming in spring 2022. The novel focuses on an unlikely trio of retirees who try to solve the 250-year-old mystery of the controversial First American Declaration of Independence, actions which–if successful–will change US history. That is, if they don't die trying. Frye Gaillard, American historian and author of A Hard Rain: America in the 1960s, says: “This is a novel rooted in history and mystery and imagination–a crackling good book” and Clyde Edgerton, author of Walking Across Egypt and Raney calls it: “Delicious, Funny, Suspenseful.” Cathy Pickens, our guest host, had this to say: “Humor, a good puzzle, a peek inside some artful legal maneuvering, engaging characters—all the absolutely perfect ingredients for a mystery.” #MeckDec #MeckDecDay #MecklenburgDeclarationofIndependence #MecklenburgDeclaration #CaptainJamesJack #Charlottehistory #Trailofhistory #CharlotteLibertyWalk #May20thsociety #historicalfiction #legalthriller #cozymystery #mysterybook #amateursleuth #humorousmystery #kindleunlimitedbooks #DeadlyDeclarationsnovel #DeadlyDeclarations Engage with the show here: https://linktr.ee/CharlotteReadersPodcast Detailed show notes here: https://charlottereaderspodcast.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/charlottereaderspodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/charlottereaderspodcast/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlottereader Charlotte Readers Podcast is a proud member of the Authors on the Air Global Radio Network and the Queen City Podcast Network. © Charlotte Readers Podcast and Authors on the Air Global Radio Network

Like any other group of people, it's unfair to paint preachers with a broad brush. Truth be told, we run the gamut from good to bad, helpful to hurtful, wise to flat-out weird, and we can sometimes seem stranger than fiction. Well, almost. That's where Clyde Edgerton comes in. Clyde is an acclaimed author, the writer of 10 novels and two autobiographical books. He's had his work adapted for other mediums such as film and stage, and he's been honored with a barrage of awards and recognitions that have helped distinguish him as one of the most successful and entertaining authors active today. A product of the south and plenty of Sundays spent in church, Clyde often finds preachers creeping into his stories, and in this episode he sits down with me to talk about what makes them such interesting characters to write. It's one of the most fun conversations I've had in a while. Give it a listen, and who knows? You might just find that someone from Clyde's gallery of preachers sounds a lot like you... Learn more about Clyde here, and definitely be sure to check out some of his books. Your sermons, and your funny bone, with thank you.
